Incorporating the Online Forum

[m_x]

I mentioned this to N last night but I think it would be a good idea to start organizing representatives from each committee to scan the forum prior to GA's or committee meetings.  

 

I know it would be hard to efficiently incorporate things from the net but I think it can be done.  Perhaps it would be easiest during committee meetings for the representative to take a moment to present some of these ideas found online. 

 

I actually think this is essential due to the fact that many people who need this movement can't take part due to jobs, being unable to afford getting downtown on a regular basis.  Obviously this forum is in in its infancy but I think as we spread the word of our movement it can potentially be a great resource.

I'm all for this. Kind of like viewer mail...

Seriously, people put a lot of stuff on this forum, many good thoughts, ideas, and observations. I think your idea is necessary and good.

I have emailed different @occupy addresses with particular references to the forums on a couple of occasions. One person replied! Twice! That was good. And, I have also asked, are you all checking the forum? Is anyone checking the forum and bringing it into the GA?

I think that your idea of having people act as committee reps in regard to forum is a good idea.
